Why a Holiday to Seattle?

• Seattle is the birthplace of the musical genre known as ‘grunge’ – a musical sub group which includes bands such as the ever influential group ‘Nirvana’. You can learn more about the history of this genre at the Experience Music Project.
• In fact, Seattle continues to have strong connections with live music. The city boasts a great number of live music venues, offering countless options for a good night out.
• Seattle has a reputation as being the ‘rainy city'; as it happens though, this nickname is somewhat inaccurate. In reality, the city enjoys a pleasant climate, and far less annual rainfall than other destinations in the USA such as Boston, New York or San Francisco.
• Seattle is the home of the much-loved coffee shop chain, Starbucks. The city boasts some of the most impressive branches in the chain, so be sure to take the opportunity to stop off for a coffee somewhere during your stay.
